Scientists watch brain tumors transform using advanced imaging
NCT ID NCT03952598
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tracks a substance called 2-HG in the brains of people with a type of brain cancer (glioma) that has specific gene changes. By using special MRI scans over time, researchers hope to learn how and when these tumors become more aggressive. About 42 adults will have regular scans and check-ups for life, but no new treatment is being tested.
